            <h3>Description of Vietcong</h3>
            <div class="gameDescription dscr">
            <a href="javascript:void(0)" onclick="this.remove()" class="readmore">Read Full Review</a><p>It'd be damn near impossible to address a game like Vietcong without considering whether it should ever have been made in the first place. Pretty much everyone agrees that the Vietnam war was in principle, a Bad Thing (tm), where lots of people did lots of things that frankly, they shouldn't have. Y'know, butchery, pillage and the like, stuff you're definitely not getting a Care Bear hug for. So as with the movie industry, perhaps a digital recreation of the conflict should either take a political stance, try to teach us something, or perhaps represent both sides of the war as fairly as possible?</p>

<p>Or alternatively, not. This, after all is the videogames industry, the world of Who Frags Wins, and deep thought was never much of a raison d'etre for best selling titles. Pterodon has attempted to avoid any politically oriented criticism by not reproducing any of the grunt ground-troop conflicts of the war, instead concentrating on the role of the US special forces, who wouldn't have done anything naughty. Honest. Probably. This would be fine, if the enemy weren't painted unambiguously as the bad guys, and if your comrades didn't go through the game screaming racist obscenities at the enemy whilst gunning them down and whooping a lot.</p>

<p>But lo and verily, this is, after all a game, so perhaps it's best to consider it just as that. The game is labelled as a tactical shooter, but that's a bit of a misnomer, as there's not really all that much in it worthy of the label "tactical". You go through each level with your squad of team-mates, each with their own speciality, but your control over them is limited to hold and attack commands - there's really very little you can do to affect their progress. And you don't necessarily need to, since each and every one of them seems almost totally invulnerable to damage. They can't complete the mission without you - at least that much is left to you - but they can take withering amounts of gunfire from the enemy with nothing more than a witty comeback and a sneer.</p>

<p>The missions themselves are pleasantly varied, from base defence and attacks, to taking out snipers, tunnel combat, helicopter gun-operation missions, and all-out jungle firefights. These are the most exciting missions the game has to offer, with a frenetic pace, and excellent use of the jungle cover. Ducking under logs as horrendous amounts of bullets fly to and fro, popping up and laying down covering fire is about as much fun as you can have in an FPS. This contrasts horrendously with the tunnel missions, which are dull beyond belief, pitch-black, and deeply unfulfilling. Why are we paying money to stare at a black screen with a crosshairs on it? Dramatic tension? If only.</p>

<p>What the game does do well is make you feel like a hero, although the voiceovers make you want to slit your own throat. You have to lead your team into missions, because no-one else will, and generally success is down to your single-handed ingenuity and skill in combat. If you can stomach the over-enthusiastic flag-waving, you can get a real thrill at your successes, although there's always the realisation in the back of your mind that there's not much point in rejoicing that much, because no matter what happens, you lose in the end (not that the game would admit it).</p>

<p>The graphics aren't helping much, unfortunately. The engine seems a little tired, with blocky characters, and a uniform mixture of khaki, khaki, and, er, brown for the environments. For Vietnam movie enthusiasts used to the rainforest palette of jungle warfare, the monotonous undergrowth in shades of green and dark beige is a poor second best. Weaponry however, is well represented, and seemingly accurate for the time (er, we guess. Not having been alive then, or having any great involvement with military hardware.). You'll certainly notice some touches of realism, as grenades ring in your ears when they detonate close-by, and nice kickback from the firearms.</p>

<p>Despite decidedly average visuals, it's also a fairly atmospheric ride - your camp, which you can explore between missions, is fully decked out with interactive characters, and there's a decent selection of recognisable 60s music playing in the background to get you in the mood. There's also the A-Team thrill of seeing those helicopters flying in formation overhead.</p>

<p>Online, the game performs pretty well. One team can play the VCs, and the variety of gameplay strategies merged with some clever environments, should make some enticing gameplay. The ins and outs of dodging under logs, through trees, and behind cover can be tense stuff. Take 2 is already reporting good numbers participating online.</p>

<p>Vietcong is a game that struggles with itself. While being by and large a straight-forward action shooter, it's really aching to be a tactical shooter, and in that vein it's a pity there's not more control over your team members. The missions themselves are varied, both in content and in quality, although the standard difficulty level is really far too easy, with the next one up being furiously tricky. If atmospheric shooters are your thing, it could be worth a look, but if accurate historical depictions are your bag, you'll be hard pushed to get excited.</p>
